    net/rdist6: Rename the binary from rdist6 to rdist
    
    Years ago FreeBSD base had its own /usr/bin/rdist. To avoid confusion
    and allow users to use rdist6 without PATH or alias gymnastics the
    binary was renamed to rdist6. FreeBSD no longer maintains its own
    rdist so we can revert back from rdist6 to rdist ourselves.
